CHAPTER XIV.

PLAY THE FOOL, AND LEARN THE TRUTH.
Whom Lydia and tho old Marquis had
concluded that nothing further could be
done toward rescuing the Princess, they
held consultation with Louvait. The re-
suit of this was tho unanimous decision that
not only was 1t better, but also absolutely
necessary, that the news of the affair should
be kept from the public--especially from
the newspapers.
To Lydia and the Marquis this seemed I'M
possible. But Louvait assured them that II
they would place tho matter entirely in his
hands he would guarantee that the story
would soon die natural death.
With his usual clevernoss and unscrupu-
lousnoss in distorting tho truth, he imme-
diately circulated a report which, on the
face Of 1t, appeared SO plausible and proba-
BILE, 80 satisfactory an explanation of the
extraordinary disappearance of the Prin-
cess, that all who had heard about 1t at once
accepted II as truth, laughed at themselves
for their unnecessary interest and horror,
and under the supposition that tho Princess
was with her family at Lake Maggiore,
dropped their talk and soon forgot entirely
about tho supposed abduction.
Natalie's family, with rare good sense,
acting under the advice of the detective
and Of LYDIA kept tho secret so well that
no one outside OF the palace knew any
thing at all Of the Princess Disappearance.
And soon to those who had heard Of II, at
all, the abduction Of tho Princess Natalie
Radziwill was a thing Of tho past
This was just what Jean Louvait wanted.
Nota single newspaper even referred 10
the supposed falso report which died shortly
after its birth. Louvalt reioiced.
The sound advice Of tho Fronchman and Of
Lady Lydia, the receipt Of the bulletins, whose
place Of mailing 1t was impossible to even
guess at-bulletins that bore the most com
forting news, told in amost chatty and con
fldential style, which was simply impudent
together with dainty note from Natalie
herself-all these united to produce wait
ng-policy. -
Natalie's massive was short.
II am allowed she wrote, ito say that
am well and treated quite like Princess;
although why am prisoner is more than
] can tell"
Lydia, after recovering from the excite
ment naturally occasioncd by her friends
disappearance, suddenly became very alb
sent-minded and distrdh A very unwel-
come suspicion had flashed across her mind
and deeply burned itself thereon. She held
with Louvait another consultation 50 skill
fully managed as not to awaken tho clever
detectives suspicious. Tho result of this
interview was the unwilling, yet almost In
inevitable formation Of a theory upon hor
paFt-a theory that her whole heSYt was set
upon rejecting, II possible. Stlh she was
forced TO recognize 1t as so probable as well
as plausible thnt peace Of mind could never
BIO hers until II were disproved.
Accordingly one day she won't 10 her
ehaperon and constant companion, Wild

to America.
The Countess stared in surprise.

CHAPTER XIX.

Moro than three weeks had now elapsed
since the abduction; but Fairfax kent him-
self so closely concealed that Natalie was
not even aware of his presence.
One day, however, returning from a
drive, she distinctly heard the piano sound
ing forth, it seemed to her, the last notes Of
a slow movement from one Of Beethovon's
sonatas. Quickly entering tho house, she
found no one within. Blanche was in tho
adjoining room, busting the furniture.
Undoubtedly the maid had been cleaning
the keys Of tho piano and accidentally
struck the notes that seemed to complete
the matchless adagio Of the master.

LEWIs Kidd SET rATLIBERTY.
siie Governor COmnutes His SEN
tence to Seven Months.

Governor Lee yesterday commuted
the stnttuce Of Lewis p. Kidd from
twelve to seven months confinement in
The Manchester Jail, which amounts to
pardoniDg him.
In June. 1856, Kidd became involved
IN q difficulty with Thomas Calligan
aud, using his pistol, inflicted a wound
in Calligan's mouth, from which it was
for a long while thought that the latter
would die He recovered, however,
and Kidd was convicted and sentenced
60 one year in the penitentiary, but the
Governor was petitioned and commu-
ted the sentence to imprisonment for
the same length Of time IN Jail. - - -
With all of the facts in this case the
rcnders Of the DiSpatch are entirely
familiar.
denomination document was taken
to Manchester yesterday afternoon and
Kidd was at once released and allowed
to breathe once more the fresh air, OF
which be had been deprived so long
The prisoner was sentenced on the
9Th Of February last, nearly eight
months ago, and he had then been in
Jail altogether more than a month.
The petition for commutation was
signed by the Mayor OF Manchester
and other city officials and by a mum
Der Of prominent citizens. Accompa-
nying the petition was a cOmmunica-
ton from DR. S. l.. Ingram, the physi-
clan to the city Jail, who has been
regularly attending the prisoner. The
Doctor says in his communication to
the Governor
"For the past two or three months
Lewis +. Kidd, confined in the Man
chester city jail, has suffered and is
suffering to such an extent from ex-
treme nervous prostration, combined
with chronic arrangement OF the
bowels, as to excite grave apprehsnsions
of serious results from longer cOntine-
ment in Jail, and therefore feel it in-
cumbent upon me to recommend him
TO Executive clemency, and | am OF
the opinion that further confinement
would result most probably in perma-
nent injury"
Before this unfortunate occurrence
Kidd had Away borne the character of
a quiet and peaceable young man. He
has a wife and little child, for whom, at
all times, the deepest sympathy has
been manifested. The young mans
confinement has borne heavily on him,
and in future ne will not be likely to
give way so readily to passionate i'm
pulses.
